Newmont Corporation has reported a higher gold Mineral Reserves of 96.1 million attributable ounces for 2022 compared to the Company’s 92.8 million ounces at the end of 2021.

Newmont has significant upside to other metals, including more than 15 billion pounds of copper reserves and nearly 600 million ounces of silver reserves.

In 2022, Newmont replaced depletion and grew reserves by nearly 4 percent as we continued to focus on extending mine life, developing districts and discovering new opportunities in the most favorable mining jurisdictions. Our diverse, global portfolio of operations and projects delivers steady production for at least the next decade, leading the industry with approximately six million gold ounces per year. Supported by the most extensive exploration program in the industry, our team is actively building a profitable and resilient production pipeline for the next several decades” Tom Palmer, President and Chief Executive Officer revealed.

For 2022, Newmont reported 96.1 million ounces of gold Mineral Reserves, a 3.6 percent increase from the prior year total of 92.8 million ounces. Additions of 8.6 million ounces and acquisitions3 of 3.1 million ounces were partially offset by depletion of 7.2 million ounces and unfavorable net revisions of 1.2 million ounces.

Additions before revisions of 8.6 million ounces through exploration and technical studies met the Company’s target despite higher costs. Notable reserve additions for the year from Newmont’s operating sites included:

• Cerro Negro added 0.8 million ounces primarily due to drilling in the Eastern Districts
• Merian added 0.5 million attributable ounces primarily due to drilling at the Merian 2 open pit
• Tanami added 0.4 million ounces primarily due to drilling at Liberator and Auron
• Ahafo North added 0.2 million ounces primarily due to drilling
• Newmont’s 40 percent interest in Pueblo Viejo added 4.4 million attributable ounces, and its 38.5 percent interest in NGM added 1.4 million attributable ounces

With regards to other Metals, in 2022, copper reserves increased slightly to 15.7 billion pounds from 15.1 billion pounds in the prior year, primarily due to increased equity at Yanacocha. Measure and Indicated copper resources increased slightly to 17.9 billion pounds from 17.8 billion pounds, primarily due to increased equity at Conga and Yanacocha. Inferred copper resources remained flat at 8.6 billion pounds as compared to the prior year.

Silver reserves increased to 593 million ounces from 568 million ounces in the prior year, primarily due to increased equity at Yanacocha. Measured and Indicated silver resources also increased to 500 million ounces from 422 million ounces in the prior year, primarily due to increased equity at Yanacocha and Conga. Inferred silver resources decreased to 152 million ounces from 163 million ounces in the prior year, primarily due to the divestiture of Agua Rica and resource conversion at Cerro Negro.

Lead reserves decreased to 2.3 billion pounds from 2.6 billion pounds in the prior year, and zinc reserves also decreased to 5.5 billion pounds from 6.3 billion pounds. These decreases were primarily due to depletion at Peñasquito. Measured and Indicated lead resources increased to 1.6 billion pounds from 1.2 billion pounds, while Inferred lead resources decreased to 440 million pounds from 480 million pounds in the prior year. Measured and Indicated zinc resources increased to 3.7 billion pounds from 2.7 billion pounds and Inferred zinc resources decreased to 1.0 billion pounds from 1.1 billion pounds in the prior year. The increases in Measured and Indicated lead and zinc resources were primarily due to positive revision at Peñasquito. The decreases in Inferred lead and zinc resources were primarily due to negative revisions and conversion at Peñasquito.
